With transmitted light differential interference observation using an
NOTE
immersion objective, set the microscope's field diaphragm so that
it circumscribes the field of view. Otherwise the contrast may
degrade. (This applies to both visual observation and laser
differential interference observation.)
(5) Filters
These filters are used to adjust the transmitted light.
•
Be sure to disengage any filter from the light path for transmitted observation using
lasers. Leaving a filter engaged in the light path will degrade the image quality.
When you perform transmitted observation using laser with BX61WI, use the filter
knob to disengage the LBD from the light path and engage the FR (Frost) into the
light path. Disengaging the FR (Frost) from the light path may generate interference
fringes on an image.
(6) Universal condenser
Condenser for transmitted lighting. In addition, the rotary turret for the transmitted light
DIC prism and the polarizing plate for differential interference observation (polarizer)
are also provided.
•
To perform differential interference observation, engage the transmitted light DIC
prism matching the objective in use in the light path (For both visual observation and
laser differential interference observation).
•
To perform visual differential interference observation or laser differential
interference observation, engage the polarizing plate in the light path.
(7) Hand switch U-HSTR2 (U-FH is optionally available with BX61/BX61WI)
This is the hand switch to operate the BX motorized system.
NOTE Connect the filter wheel of BX to connector of the following in the
back of UCB.
